Step 1: Print the Template

Start by printing the Easter bunny template using a color printer. This ensures that the pink parts for the ears and nose are in the correct hue, adding a touch of vibrancy to your creation.

Step 2: Prepare Your Materials

Gather all the necessary materials – scissors, glue, and the printed template. Having everything in place will make the crafting process smooth and enjoyable.

Step 3: Cut Out the Shapes

Carefully cut along the outlines of each shape on the template. You should have a large circle for the head, a medium pink circle for the body, four small circles for the arms and legs, two ovals for the ears, and additional shapes for the inner ears and eyes. Take your time with this step to ensure precise shapes.

Step 4: Assemble the Body

Take the medium circle and attach the four smaller circles to the sides and bottom edge to form the arms and legs using glue. This simple assembly sets the foundation for your paper bunny.

Glue the large circle onto the top of the medium circle to form the head.  Add the eyes to the head. Attach the pink inner ear pieces to the outer ears, then attach the ears to the top of the head.

Final Touches:

If you have any additional decorative materials like ribbons, stickers, or glitter, you can add these to give your Easter bunny a personal touch.

For a more three-dimensional look, you could use foam squares or rolled up pieces of tape to give the eyes and ears a slightly raised effect.
